All our events are experiential, participatory and interactive. They're full of learning, heart and fun, so Take the next step and register. (Check below the training list for a overview of Matrix Leadership's general training philosophy and details about our different event types.)
Through the Matrix Model we offer a simple, transformative approach to creating sustainable, life-enhancing relationships, groups, communities, and organizations. We begin by developing open, compassionate communication between each pair of people as the foundation for a group's evolution. In Matrix groups, diverse individuals truly meet, understand, support and collaborate with each other. We develop the capacity to realize our interdependence and harvest our emerging collective intelligence.
Matrix Leadership Institute is dedicated to providing teams of gender-balanced, diverse faculty who are passionate about their work as Matrix facilitators. We are committed to direct, experiential learning and we offer a full range of training formats that foster deep personal and skill-based professional learning for groups and individuals.
Matrix trainings utilize a variety of whole-brain, whole-person modalities to access multiple learning styles. These modalities may include small group sessions, structured experiential group exercises, mini-lectures, movement, dance, yoga, meditation, voice and sound, drumming, music, poetry and visual arts.
